As Cyclingnews reported from the Criterium du Dauphine, EF Education First recently began racing aboard an all-new Cannondale SuperSix EVO, a bike that has since been officially launched by Cannondale, with claims of some big improvements over its predecessor.
The first thing you notice with the new SuperSix EVO is the newly designed frame shape featuring the more aerodynamic and comfort-enhancing dropped seat stays. The frame utilises aerodynamic tube profiles throughout, which claim to offer equal-or-better stiffness than round tubes, while reducing drag by up to 30 per cent and shaving 19 grams from the frameset weight (56cm).
Aerodynamic benefits
The biggest claim from Cannondale is that the new SuperSix EVO is 30 watts faster at 30mph than their previous SuperSix model, and, perhaps more importantly, 9 watts faster than any of its current competition from the same frameset category.

The front of the head tube features an unusual port through which your cables can be routed internally for a clean front-end look and additional aerodynamic gains. This works in conjunction with the new 'Saveintegrated' bar and 'Knot' stem. There is also a switch plate integrated into the down tube, which simplifies electronic groupset control placement.
